“When Nina came along, Chris had some health complications with something called Help syndrome. Nina was born at 2 pounds, 15 ounces, and you know, was quite small,” Vince Centofanti said. "We were in the NICU at Good Sam for five weeks, and as you can see she's doing well now."

But the reason they will be telling her story is because Nina is now the national ambassador for the March of Dimes.

Vince works for General Electric, in the division that makes equipment for preemies. His wife Chris was a neonatal intensive care unit nurse for years.

Then they became parents to Nina, born 9 weeks early.

"You cannot be prepared to see your baby in an incubator. You can't pick them up, you can't hold them, you can't take them home like your full-term babies," Vince Centofanti said.

“It's an incredibly humbling experience to be on the other side, watching my own daughter, having to give up every instinct I had, which was to care for her professionally, and instead sit on my hands and just be her mom," Chris Centofanti said

The family talked to the UAW and other union workers in Sharonville Thursday. Their message -- support the March of Dimes and the March for Babies this spring.

Nina is now 7 and will be delivering her message across the country over the next few months.

"I get to help babies, just like the March of Dimes helped me," Nina Centofanti said.

Including one meeting they're all excited about.

“We get to see President Obama in the White House, in the Oval Office. It’s something the administrations have been doing for years," Vince Centofanti said.

An Iranian military observation aircraft flew within 50 yards of an armed U.S. Navy helicopter over the Persian Gulf this month, sparking concern that top Iranian commanders might not be in full control of local forces, CNN has learned.
